I'm proud of you Anon.
>>42542854
Good job brah, let's fucking gooooooooo
>>42542854
How are u doing it op?
A-asking for a friend
>>42542885
This. You're probably developing some muscle imbalances in your pecs.
>>42542854
I know that feel. Congrats senpai, 2pl8 next
>Stalled on 155
this sucks how do I even get over this man
>>42542854
Congrats anon, I did this a month ago. Up to a plate and a half today. We're all gonna make it
I finally got to 185lbs for 5, but could only do one set, the second one being 4 reps and the next two only being able to push a triple. I'm 99% sure that was a mental block I suffered, though. I'll tear it up for 4x5 next week.

I wish I knew I've been stuck at 155 for 3 months meanwhile my brother can do 2 pl8 for 8 reps.
>>42542854
Fuck yeah my guy I love these threads I remember my first 1pl8 bench, nearly stalled and screamed "don't touch it!" To my gymbro who was about to assist me
>>42542854
>just hit 2pl8 last week
We're all gonna make it, breh.
I can do 1pl8 3x5 but I can't do 140lbs 1x5 ;_;
>>42542854
Good shit man.
Start small. Don't listen to your ego, or any of the trolls. Slow and steady. Form first, then go ham.
>>42542854
>>42544986
we're all gonna make it!
still remember my first 1pl8 bench
>working out alone at the college gym after summer
>rack up 1pl8
>struggle to hit 5 reps on first set but barely finish
>fraternity brother shows up out of nowhere and says it looks like I'm lifting it like it's nothing
>>42542854
That's what I'm talking about, keep it up bro. How long did it take you? What is your height/weight?
>>42542854
How much does a plate weigh?
I hit 135 last month but I've been stalled since then. Wat do? Deload? Eat more?
>>42542854
Don't just be the guy that started with the bar and got to 1pl8, be the guy that started with the bar and got to 2.
>tfw 1pl8 is my warm up weight
>tfw can rep out 5x10 like its nothing
>deadlifted 340
Can I do a curlbro routine yet?
>>42544958

>>42542854
Keep at it boyo.

>>42542854
>hit 135x3 on ohp today
>>42544957

> start with bar
> 2 weeks in and can't finish my last set on SS with 70lb
Fuck me.
I'm starting at 95 pounds hoping to get to 1 pl8 in a week or two
Good job op.
>>42545863
Never give up my dude. Keep going until you can.
>>42542854
Keep it up, keep it up!
>>42545863
Everybody starts somewhere. Some people will be able to start with larger weights than you, but don't worry about it. Just keep it at it and you'll be lifting larger weights.
